FAQs

What is the main benefit of the ABZORB sole unit?

The ABZORB sole unit is designed to absorb impact and provide cushioning, offering comfort and support during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

The New Balance 2010 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light activities. They offer comfort and style but are not engineered for high-impact sports or dedicated running.

How do I determine the correct unisex size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, which typically converts UK men's sizing to a unisex equivalent. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart for the most accurate fit.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is generally not recommended to machine wash leather trainers as it can damage the material and the cushioning. Hand washing with a damp cloth is the preferred method for cleaning.

These specific trainers are made with leather.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

While this guide focuses on the Grey/Purple colorway, other color options may be available. Please check the product listing for alternative variations.

What does 'progressive design' mean in this context?

Progressive design refers to the incorporation of modern, forward-thinking aesthetic elements, such as the expanded proportions of the sole, while still retaining familiar design cues from past models.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoe feels slightly stiff, wear it for short periods initially to break it in. Consider using thicker socks for a snugger fit.

Squeaking sound

Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction between different parts of the shoe or moisture. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or check if the laces are too tight.

Color transfer from purple accents

In rare cases, the purple dye may transfer, especially when wet. Ensure the trainers are dry before wearing with light-colored socks. If significant transfer occurs, contact customer support.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ABZORB cushioning may feel less responsive after extensive use. While not always fixable, ensure the insoles are clean and properly positioned. Consider replacing the insoles if the issue persists.
